One Man’s Scrap, Another Man’s Gold (November 2006)

This month we have written this column differently. Since Cathy Mitchell wrote in "A Beggar’s Dilemma" about our current situation, we decided in this column to just list our needs. We are only doing a list for this one month. Next month, we will be back to our usual way of writing "One Man’s Scrap."

One thing, however, is the same every month. Our needs are ongoing; and it is as beggars that we humbly and trustingly lay them before you.

Here is our list.

Laundry: cotton muslin-type fabric or old cotton flour sacks for making large dishtowels, single-size bed sheets (either fitted or flat), and beach towels

Once again we thank you for your continued generosity. Without it, our work would not be possible. These days we ask for your continued prayers as we pray and listen to the Lord in our efforts to discern his will for us, his beggars of Madonna House.
